INDIANAPOLIS - Jermaine O'Neal told everyone all summer long that he would get back to this level of performance at his position. Now, he's starting to show it. The talk-the-talk campaign is starting to become the walk-the-walk tour for O'Neal, who became the first player in Heat history to st...

Observations from Wednesday's 115-93 victory over the Knicks at AmericanAirlines Arena: A rough start for Dwyane Wade, who shot 2 of 9 in his six-point first quarter. He was 4 of 12 in an 11-point first half. For once, he wasn't positively essential against the Knicks. He eventually warmed up, ...

Leo if you just said that no one wouldve gave you a hard time
you were too busy ripping on wade like it was his fault oneal wasnt here the whole year last year and his only other two creators offensively were rookies
he was just doing all he could to get us wins and to the playoffs and be the best we could be, last year waas alot differnt than this year with what he had to do offensively
now he can play just as hard and do it dominating within the flow of the team and breaking the other teams will in key stretches, which is what makes d-wade well... d-wade

"Pick your poison," Beasley said. "When we all play like that, it makes the game a whole lot easier."
Here's one way to put that absurd Heat shooting spree into perspective: Miami missed fewer shots (five) in more than 1 1/2 quarters than New York's Al Harrington did (six) in the second quarter alone.

"It makes everyone's job easy," Wade said. "When the ball is moving, everyone is getting their opportunities and it makes everyone play hard on the other end of the floor. That's what we want to do. We know it's not going to be like that every game, but for the majority of the year, we want to make sure everyone's involved."

Leo youre gonna see first-hand what Wade can do as your teams best player when he has help, just like all of us saw in 2005 and 2006
sure he had to carry us last year and 2007 and he was great...... but its a whole different beast when he has help, a championship contending/mvp type of beast

Imagine what Wade will do with help like this?
what he's gonna do when teams realize that all 4 of his teammates can ball offensively and we have great spacing, a great 2nd option 20ppg scorer, and a great 3rd option and postup scorer in oneal?!?!?!
wow, plust he bench of haslem arroyo and cook looked good
Magloire at backup center insted of anthony will be cool

From a Knicks pov, keep in mind we were not rotating guys over to Beasley and he was beating guys like Gallo and Lee(two of our worst man to man defenders) off the dribble and no one came to help. We'll see what Beasley does once teams recognize him as a threat and give him star treatment in the gameplan.

Isnt that what we're hoping for? That opens it up for Wade, no?

Q: How can Wade argue, "I just want to make sure that we're doing the right things" as a reason for not signing now? He knows we have Riles, tons of cash and a precedent-setting championship only three seasons ago. -- Shawn. A: And he also knows that over the past three seasons the Heat has not ...

it just feels like this team is gonna be something special, a huge underdog that comes up huge with a contending 55 win season
double nickels is where its at, wade mvp, beasley allstar, jermaine and qrich career resurrections, chalmers=young fisher, and our boys on the bench are seriously good nba backups (Magloire bacup center more than joel, but the others arroyo cook and halsem especially, even james jones is a good nba backup)

Wade shooting 3-10 from the field with a .5 assist to turnover ratio, and we're up?
That's new.
